You are not alone. That's why some EU countries prefer to buy US millitary equipment(often at inflated prices), support US's interests in the region and beyond(i.e Iraq invasion), accept US's interferences and be done with it. The EU army project is too risky politically and strategically. Things may change if US becomes too erratic(i.e think of a super Trump presidency)
- mola 6y agoWell, reality is not static, what's laughable today may be very reasonable tomorrow. EU generally would like to play ball with the US as long as the relationship is palatable predictable stable and generally cooperative. But a strong EU and an unpredictable, bullish and erratic behaviour by certain US presidents, might change this.
